Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Christine Darter Ilustrador. ### A Field Guide to the Trees of Britain and Northern Europe by Alan Mitchell 1974 ## ## THIS BOOK: Classified as VERY GOOD: This is the 1974 edition, reprinted in the same year. The front cover is glossy, displaying a full-colour painting of various parts of a tree. The cover is intact, with minor shelf marks. No bumping; the spine is tight. There are over 800 trees described and illustrated. ## IMAGES: We provide at least two images for every book and a map; this way, you get an idea of what you are purchasing. ## Read on for interesting information. ## Alan Mitchell?s A Field Guide to the Trees of Britain and Northern Europe (1974) remains a key reference for naturalists, hikers, and anyone curious about the silent guardians of the landscape. Carefully crafted and richly detailed, this guide offers more than simple identification; it reveals the quiet stories woven into bark, leaves, and form across Britain and the diverse terrains of Northern Europe. ## Mitchell, renowned for his lifelong dedication to arboriculture, brings sharp precision and extensive knowledge that reflect decades of fieldwork. Covering over 300 species, the book offers clear descriptions, distribution maps, and detailed information on both native and introduced trees. Each entry combines diagnostic features with notes on habitat, ecological value, and even historical use, making it not only a botanical resource but also a cultural guide. ## What makes the 1974 edition stand out are its precise illustrations?both line drawings and shaded renderings?that depict leaf shapes, fruits, buds, and bark textures with clarity that is as educational as it is artistic. These visuals complement Mitchell?s straightforward prose, ensuring even the most novice tree enthusiast can distinguish an alder from an ash, or a Norway spruce from a Scots pine.## ## Beyond taxonomy, Mitchell fills the guide with quiet reverence. His words depict a world where each tree is a character with lineage, resilience, and presence in the ever-changing story of the land. Whether found in parkland, woodland, or windswept coastline, the trees come alive in his narrative?rooted not only in soil but in centuries of interaction with people and place. ## Tree identification remains key to the book, but readers will also explore pathways into conservation, woodland management, and the subtle differences hinting at climate and geography. It?s an essential guide for field trips and a reflective read by the fireside, combining scientific rigour with poetic appreciation. ### INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please Note.
